Fidia Falaschetti's 'STILL 1492' Totem at Fuorisalone 2026 in Brera
During Milan Design Week 2026, the space in front of the Pinacoteca di Brera hosts a monumental totem by Los Angeles-based artist Fidia Falaschetti. Titled 'STILL 1492', the work critiques consumerism and reflects on Native American heritage. Created in collaboration with Angelino Artworks and Robertaebasta Art Gallery, the totem blends pop icons with indigenous symbolism. Falaschetti explores modern 'addictions' and advocates for a rediscovery of Native American values to overcome purely material progress. The installation is part of the Brera Design District program.
